that II they were to be judged by the num-
ber OF hours they put in at the capitol. it !
might be we'll to purchase a number of cots |
or folding beds, place them in the capitol
The points m sde bY Senator's Hughes
and McCumber that, according to the rules,
it requires q two-thirds vote to suspend
standing rule, were well taken, unless Mr..
Webster was a humOriSt and his dictionary
a whitening joke on the English language
However. Sanator Cain proved himself
OF magnificent rOstrum voice. And this
is enough for one days work, unless his
constituents are very fastidiOus and ex.
acting class.
HUMAN NATURE
is the same in public as in pri-
vate life. and there is no better place to see
it on dress parade than in the halls of
legislature. 1t was interesting yesterday
morning to observe the rivalry between
members for the honor of Introducing the
first bill. The orders of business were be-
ing passed rapidly, and as the the time for
the Introduction of bills drew near, the
gentlemen who had their embryotic laws
ready to hurl into the legislative mill did q
very neat bit of loading and printing and
getting ready to fire. As the speaker said
I'VE will now pass to-" fifteen hOnOrableS
leaned forward and gazed at him wildly.
and as he finished with the words Intro
duction of bills," they sprang to the
aisles and in thundrous concert shouted
"Mr. Speaker!' -..lt
Mr.. Multimore, who occupies front seat
having jumped at least ten inches higher
than any other member, he was first recog--
nized, and had it not been for the action of
the cruel clerk in reading another bill first,
he would have won the glowing honor.
OF DEEP INTEREST.
I A question Of deep interest to all who go
to the capitol daily is that of bus fare, and
the reduction m. .de by Mr.. Dietrich in the
fare to and from the capitol will meet with
the applause Of the community. Mr.. Die
trich, who has been so successfully damned
during the past few days by the men
whose salaries have been thrown into his
vehicles, will hereafter convey you one
way for Is cents or give you around trip
ticket for Is cents. This is reasonable
rate and will do away with the dissatisfac-
ton on this point. ,-a.
"5.N SCATTERING SHOTS.
The apology of Mr. Elliott, of the house.
when he learned that the candidate whom
he had been opposing for assistant enroll
ing clerk was lady, has raised that gen
tleman to an eminence in the estimation of
the fair sex that cannot be reached without
the aid of ladder. Mr.. Elliott is not a
married man. as his enemies have an
nOunced, and these little fnurishes to gain
the good will of the rosy daughters of Da-
kota are to be admired rather than dis.
cOuraged.
The fact that Mr.. Pruitt is the most thor
oughly esthetle and prepossessing member
of the legislature is not just ground for the
spirit of jealousy exhibited against him by
the ambitious gallants of the house and
LOBBY. He is an estimable young man and
The statement that the appearance of the
senate in the house Wednesday stopped the
clock, is denied. and it is asserted that the
intellectual chrOnOmeter refused to work
because Senator Cain and other gentlemen
of conscientious scruples were taking
rest.
+ Representative Roger has gone to Aber-
deem, but he will return to the city in
few days to add his tall and imposing ply
sique to the array of legislative grandeur.
Senator Hughes has introduced bill
providing for public examiner. and Sen
atOr Collins has INTRODUCED bill providing
for two public examiners. AS to which Of
the bills will be accepted but little is
known, but if there is any money to be
wagered the pools will sell in favor of the
Collins bill. There is just twice as much
10 it.
There is picture somewhere-it is used
as an advertisement for some patent medi-
cine or popular article and it is a perfect
photograph Of MIR. Schnaidt, the short and
comfortable looking gentleman from Hut
chinson. If the TRIBUNE wanted a picture
to represent a happy, satisfied, after dinner
condition, it would pay reasonable
amount to get Mr.. Schnaidt before the
camera.
A bill providing for free transportation
to and from the capitol, would have re-
ceived hearty support Yesterday but now
that Mr.. Dietrich has IT iced his rates the
Legislators are paciied and do not feel so
far from home.

lowing appointments from among the

reforms of the day.
Inflammation of the Kidneys.
Hon. Edward A. Moore, Member of AS
sembly from Richmond County, New York,
writes:
"Some two weeks ago l was taken with
Inflammation Of the kidneys. The pain
was intense. | applied as soon as possible
